solutions, is pleased to announce a supply and cooperation agreement for Distributed
Temperature Sensing (DTS) technology with Ziebel.

Press Release Body: Sensornet, provider of the world's most advanced monitoring
solutions, is pleased to announce a supply and cooperation agreement for Distributed
Temperature Sensing (DTS) technology with Ziebel.

The supply agreement will allow further expansion of Ziebel\'s current fibre optic
permanent downhole monitoring solutions as well as intervention services, and will
strengthen Sensornet's position as the industry leading supplier of fibre optic
monitoring products and services.

The partnership enables Ziebel\'s intervention technologies and competencies to be
combined with the industry's most advanced DTS products and services from Sensornet.
This allows for the provision of data management and interpretation services by
FloQuest, enabling advanced analysis of DTS and other sensors for flow allocation,
injection profiling, and well integrity monitoring.

Sensornet and Ziebel have also signed a new three year exclusive agreement to
cooperate on the commercialization of the patented ZipLogTM wellbore optic surveying
method. This game-changing well intervention methodology involves a semi-stiff
carbon \"rod\" being pushed into live wellbores across production or injection
intervals. This is a cost-effective and powerful alternative to logging with coiled
tubing or well \"tractors\". The system logs downhole distributed temperature, point
pressure and vibration in real time.

Neale Carter, CEO Sensornet, said: "I am delighted by these exciting developments
and we look forward to further enhancing our disruptive technology offering to our
clients in the oil and gas industry.

"The correct analysis and interpretation of flow distribution and content can have a
significant impact both financially and logistically on a well's production life
and, ultimately, the success of an operation. This agreement will ensure that our
technically advanced range of solutions ensures that every monitoring requirement is
met."

Henning Hansen, Corporate VP - Technology, Marketing and Business Development,
Ziebel, said: "Having followed Sensornet closely for many years, I am very pleased
to see Sensornet and Ziebel now forming this cooperation.

\"Further strengthening the cooperation with Sensornet is a significant reinforcement
of Ziebel's vision to become a leading provider of systems improving reservoir
drainage.
This technology cooperation, where Ziebel\'s leading edge wellbore technologies and
competencies are merged together with Sensornet\'s industry leading fibre optic DTS
products, will for Ziebel be a significant step forward in advanced wellbore
monitoring and interpretation."
